“Who did we miss?”
Hebel asked.
“No one. All successful!”
Heron answered Hebel’s question with a smile. Heron’s forces, who had seized control of the night in the Kingdom of Garin, executed one operation.
It was an operation to kidnap those active within the temples of the Holy Empire located within the Garin Kingdom.
“Though a few did die.”
Of course, the operation wasn’t a complete success. During the kidnappings, some ultimately lost their lives. Still, the outcome of the operation was highly satisfactory.
“So now we just send the messenger?”
“Yeah, since we’ve secured the gift, it seems we can send the envoy.”
The gift was secured. It was time to send the envoy.
“Isn’t it awkward to send the gift along with it?”
Hebel, having decided to send the envoy, asked Heron.
“Right. Sending the gift requires an enormous number of people, and the Kingdom of Might might misunderstand.”
Sending the gift with the envoy was not a good choice. Moving the gift would require a truly enormous number of people. But the Kingdom of Might might misunderstand that enormous number of people. They might wonder if we harbored other intentions.
“Then let’s hold off on the gifts for now.”
“Who are we sending?”
“Hmm.”
“Couldn’t I go?”
“…What?”
Hebel raised an eyebrow at Heron’s words and retorted.
“I want to see him once. To see what kind of person the King of the Kingdom of Might is.”
